With Fertilizer Prices Sky High- Sensor Technology Excites Producers

One of the speakers at the 5th Annual Wheat Technology Meeting being held in Oklahoma City on this Wednesday was Brian Arnall, who has worked for more than six years on sensor technology at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater.
Arnall tells us that as the price of nitrogen has gone higher- the interest in the various levels of sensor technology has moved higher and higher.In fact, the tipping point was when nitrogen went above fifty cents a pound- interest has skyrocketed since that time.
His advice to producers is to- at very least- plant a nitrogen rich strip in your fields that will help monitor the amount of nitrogen available in that field. We talked with Brian about that- and other ways that farmers can cash in with these advances made in this field by OSU. Click below on the listen bar and take a listen.
